[babidaboopy]

That guitar sounds like everything that was good about music from the 50s to early 70s

[astroboirap]

[dundermuffin90]

[coltfizz]

I found one of these today, and want to sell it. Excellent condition, please send me a pm with your offer and perhaps I will sell it to you!

[rhcpguru123]

How do you afford all these guitars?! :|

[order57]

Wish they could make it again.....

[HunterMann]

Great licks man!

We have a Teisco guitar on the back on an art car at our museum! The car is called Pico de Gallo (the music car). The guitar was found in a music store dumpster. We gave it a new life and it, along with many other orphaned instruments, brings smiles & musical inspiration to many people on tour each year.

What is the rift that you play from 0:22-0:41?

[terser]

@JeffateaSnickers - It's just one I made up for the video - most of what you hear in these videos is just me fumbling around (unless you recognize the song, or course)

[JeffateaSnickers]

@terser Gotcha. I think that riff is awesome! Thanks for the reply.

[parrymason]

@JeffateaSnickers sounds totally like something Jack White would play!

[GiroRaptile]

I HAVE THE SAME GUITAR BUT MY STUPID ASS GIRLFRIEND STEPPED ON THE NECK AND NOW I SEE NO USE FOR IT. DO U KNO ANYONE WHO WOULD WANT TO BUY OR MAYBE SELL ME THEIR NECK/FRETBOARD??? (WILL NEGOTIATE)

[LesediLoFi]

[deemilieu]

[PialatBernard]

Yes

[algattonegro]

[simonphilipps]

Old Ekos are great...by the way, I'm Italian ;-)

[yamon98]

[simoxnirvana1]

italians mae very good guitars.

[Keijz74]

Looks a bit like a Fender Jaguar. Nice guitar!

[battelloprog]

Beautiful instrument!!

I love italian vintage instruments! One of my dreams is creating a band for playing italian beat with original vintage instruments.

[juntao1919]

That's a tone to die for.... Seriously.... I need one.

[GiroRaptile]

@juntao1919 I have one with a broken neck...u wanna buy???

[Guitarstring187]

@juntao1919 for sure this is awsome tone. I need one too. OMG Ill remeber this,.

[jks2]

why are there 3 pickup switches while there are only 2 pickups?

[TheSportSatellite]

I have an old Eko archtop guitar with 2 pickups and 4 switches! They are actually buttons, One for the bridge pickup, Another for the Neck pickup, One for both, And one to turn them off.

[thesku11s]

@jks2

A lot of 1960's guitars have phase switches, most eko electrics seem to be inspired by thing like the fender jaguar which also have phase switches.

[Kebabage]

Very tinny sound, much like Jack Whites

[ungueeeh]

i've seen the same guitar on a music store near my house.

i'll never buy an eko guitar.

[anton9108]

just bought 2 brand new eko electric guitars for 75$, sounds great for the money.

[sz80]

the name is Excelsior Dynamo II ('60 's italian brand from Recanati the same of Eko etc etc)

[warlockborn]

@sz80 Believe the correct name is Dyno - they had a Dyno I then the Dyno II also made a Malabu I & II - started making them in the 50's

[peppermints90]

i love your guitar playing

[Bestroneti]

all of these videos are starting to make me think I need a nice old Kay... hehe

what amp are you playing through?

[terser]

A 1980's or 1990's solid-state Fender combo amp with the reverb turned up.

I don't know the model name off the top of my head.

[austinandzekesstuff]

@Bestroneti I would highly recommend getting an old Kay guitar. I have a 1963 Kay Vanguard, it's awesome

[beatlezrawesome]

@Bestroneti Haha listen to jack white and you will really want one.

[telecaster1963]

congratulations. this guitar is amazing. you need no major brands if you own one of these.

thanks for posting.

peace.

[jks2]

what brand/type amp is this

[charly77666]

[SkopTeocratico]
